Johnson Says Bounce Around The Ground

[littlerobin]

I aint saying i don't like the song but i think we could have summat before it to get the fans goin so everyone bounces around the ground. I dunnah if there already is a bit before which i havent heard but i would go for:

In the town where I was born

Lived a man who sailed the leagues

And he told us of his life

In the land of conference teams

So we sailed up to the top

Till we found a sea of red

And we lived top of the league

in a city submarine.

I aint any good at these things and I'm really bored so if you can do better feel free to. Also try not to slate it too much i have no musical talent.

I just sang that to myself as i read it and that sounded brilliant mate!

Just needs a few people to have the balls to start it, and people arround to join in, which is sometimes the problem

[LouieDane]

Yeh I like it a lot, but the sea of red doesn't fit, because it doesn't rhyme. How about:

In the town where I was born

Lived a man who sailed the leagues

And he told us of his life

In the land of conference teams

So we'll sail up to the top

Till we've found our field of dreams

And we lived top of the league

in a city submarine.

Thanks mate.

Yh that seems to be the problem unless your in the EE or ateyo because you need lots of people singing it for it to work. I just did it because i thought it would be good to have something just befor the johnson says bounce around the ground so people know its coming and are actually bouncing when it starts.

VYeh I like it a lot, but the sea of red doesn't fit, because it doesn't rhyme. How about:

Yeah i like that I'm happy for people to suggest things to improve it because it has to be something people can sing and remember.

[MarcusX]

I'm still singing it!

It would make the Johnson says bounce around the ground bit have more impact as well, like you say everyone will be bouncing and singing already

Thanks mate.

Two ideas:

~ Get the supporters trust to get lots of song sheets printed up (b&w copies are really cheap some places) and sell em for 50p (maybe less).

or

~ Get DL to look into printing the words to the 'CLEAN' songs in the program

[cider head]

looks good to me

.....I'll just have to bounce to that song on my seat at the back of the Dolman Stand tomorrow.

[NYTRAM]

I'll just have to do the same in F-Block of the Atyeo, my old man is mid 70's so he's going to think I'm crazy unless a few more join in.

First Idea would probably not work, seems a lot of effort, would look pretty stupid to away fans and I don't think people would buy them

But, I like the idea of having a few in the program from time to time, let's just hope Lloydy sees this!
